Configuring Generic Backup Data Collection
The following tasks must be performed as part of the Generic Backup Data Collection setup:
• In the APTARE IT Analytics Portal, create a host of type:
Generic Backup Server. This is the server that is managing the backups of the clients for which you will be importing backup data. See
Host Group Membership in the
APTARE User’s Guide.
• In the APTARE IT Analytics Portal, add a Data Collector Policy of Product Type:
Generic Backup. In this policy, supply the path to the CSV file. See
Configuring Generic Backup Data Collection in the
APTARE User’s Guide.
• Create a comma-separated file of the backup/restore data—typically, a file that has been exported using the backup software utilities. See
CSV Format Specification.
